The present application claims priority to Chinese patent application No. CN201410374264.3, filed on Jul. 31, 2014, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.
The present disclosure relates to a field of a battery technology, and more specifically to a lithium-ion battery and an electrolyte thereof.
With popularization and application of portable electronic devices, higher requirements on application environment of a lithium-ion battery is required. In order to meet the application requirement of an electrolyte under a wider temperature range, the conventional non-aqueous organic solvent of the electrolyte is mainly comprised of chain ester and cyclic ester.
U.S. Pat. No. 6,506,524B1 issued on Jan. 14, 2003 discloses an alkali metal-ion battery, in which, fluoroethylene carbonate (FEC) and propylene carbonate are added into an electrolyte in order to prevent short circuit caused by growth of bark-like crystal (or dendritic crystal) in charging process of the alkali metal-ion battery. However, because fluoroethylene carbonate (FEC) is easily reduced, especially under high temperature, fluoroethylene carbonate (FEC) is easily decomposed on a negative electrode plate and in turn decomposed to produce hydrogen fluoride (HF) gas or organic gas.
In order to inhibit gas production from fluoroethylene carbonate (FEC), Chinese patent application published as CN101252205A on Aug. 27, 2008 discloses a technical scheme that an inorganic insulating material particle layer is formed on a surface of a positive electrode plate, a negative electrode plate or a separator of a non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery using fluoroethylene carbonate as an additive, so as to reduce the gas production due to decomposition of fluoroethylene carbonate (FEC).
However, the implementation of the above technical scheme will significantly increase the difficulty in transmission of the lithium ions between the electrode plate and the separator within the battery, and reduce the transmission rate of the lithium ions within the battery. Furthermore, it is possible to increase the difficulty in the manufacturing process of the electrode plate, and make negative effects on flexibility and processability of the electrode plate. Inventors of the present disclosure have also found that, with the above technical scheme that the inorganic insulating material particle layer is formed on the surface of the positive electrode plate, the negative electrode plate or the separator, it is difficult to completely inhibit decomposition of fluoroethylene carbonate, the HF gas due to decomposition of fluoroethylene carbonate can pass through pores of the separator into the surface of the positive electrode plate, and in turn corrode the positive active material. The corrosion is more serious especially under high temperature for a long period, and will seriously affect the high temperature storage performance and the long service life of the lithium-ion battery.
Moreover, fluoroethylene carbonate, as a conventional additive for solid electrolyte interface (SEI) film, will form a SEI film on the surface of the negative active material, and also increase the impedance of the negative active material, and affect the transmission performance of the lithium ions, and further affect the low temperature discharge rate performance of the lithium-ion battery. Therefore it is necessary to seek a more reliable and effective method to improve the performances of the lithium-ion battery.
In view of the problems existing in the background of the present disclosure, an object of the present disclosure is to provide a lithium-ion battery and an electrolyte thereof, the lithium-ion battery has an excellent high temperature storage performance and an excellent low temperature discharge rate performance.
In order to achieve the above object, in a first aspect of the present disclosure, the present disclosure provides an electrolyte of a lithium-ion battery which comprises: a non-aqueous organic solvent; a lithium salt dissolved in the non-aqueous organic solvent; and an additive dissolved in the non-aqueous organic solvent. The additive comprises 1,3-dioxo-heterocyclic compound with a structural formula I and fluoroethylene carbonate (FEC). In the structural formula I, R1 and R2 each independently are H, methyl or ethyl; n is an integer selected from 1˜3; a weight percentage of 1,3-dioxo-heterocyclic compound with the structural formula I in the electrolyte of the lithium-ion battery is 0.05%˜5%; a weight percentage of fluoroethylene carbonate (FEC) in the electrolyte of the lithium-ion battery is 1%˜8%.
In a second aspect of the present disclosure, the present disclosure provides a lithium-ion battery which comprises: a positive electrode plate comprising a positive current collector and a positive film containing a positive active material and provided on the positive current collector; a negative electrode plate comprising a negative current collector and a negative film containing a negative active material and provided on the negative current collector; a separator positioned between the positive electrode plate and the negative electrode plate; an electrolyte; and an outer package. The electrolyte is the electrolyte of the lithium-ion battery according to the first aspect of the present disclosure.
The present disclosure has following beneficial effects:
(1) 1,3-dioxo-heterocyclic compound with the structural formula I of the present disclosure is an electrolyte additive which can form a stable positive SEI protective film on the surface of the positive electrode plate, especially because 1,3-dioxo-heterocyclic compound with the structural formula I can form the stable positive SEI protective film on the surface of the positive electrode plate before fluoroethylene carbonate (FEC) is decomposed into HF gas on the surface of the negative electrode plate, thereby avoiding the corrosion of the positive active material by HF gas, and further improving the high temperature storage performance of the lithium-ion battery.
(2) 1,3-dioxo-heterocyclic compound with the structural formula I of the present disclosure can also form a stable negative SEI protective film on the surface of the negative electrode plate together with fluoroethylene carbonate (FEC), and because 1,3-dioxo-heterocyclic compound with the structural formula I in the negative SEI protective film has a higher concentration of oxygen element, the transmission capability of the lithium ions on the negative SEI protective film on the surface of the negative active material is also improved, therefore the impedance of the lithium-ion battery is obviously decreased, and the low temperature discharge rate performance of the lithium-ion battery is improved.
Hereinafter a lithium-ion battery and an electrolyte thereof and examples, comparative examples and test results according to the present disclosure will be described in detail.
Firstly, an electrolyte of a lithium-ion battery according to a first aspect of the present disclosure will be described.
An electrolyte of the lithium-ion battery according to a first aspect of the present disclosure comprises: a non-aqueous organic solvent; a lithium salt dissolved in the non-aqueous organic solvent; and an additive dissolved in the non-aqueous organic solvent. The additive comprises 1,3-dioxo-heterocyclic compound with a structural formula I and fluoroethylene carbonate (FEC). In the structural formula I, R1 and R2 each independently are H, methyl or ethyl; n is an integer selected from 1˜3; a weight percentage of 1,3-dioxo-heterocyclic compound with the structural formula I in the electrolyte of the lithium-ion battery is 0.05%˜5%; a weight percentage of fluoroethylene carbonate (FEC) in the electrolyte of the lithium-ion battery is 1%˜8%
In the electrolyte of the lithium-ion battery according to the first aspect of the present disclosure, fluoroethylene carbonate (FEC) has a better performance on the formation of SEI protective film, and is beneficial for the capacity retention rate after cycling of the lithium-ion battery. However, when the lithium-ion battery is storaged under high temperature, fluoroethylene carbonate (FEC) will be decomposed into HF gas, which is the main reason resulting in the performance degradation and even the gas production in the lithium-ion battery. And 1,3-dioxo-heterocyclic compound with the structural formula I of the present disclosure is an electrolyte additive which can form a stable positive SEI protective film on the surface of the positive electrode plate, especially because 1,3-dioxo-heterocyclic compound with the structural formula I can form a stable positive SEI protective film on the surface of the positive electrode plate before fluoroethylene carbonate (FEC) is decomposed into HF gas on the surface of the negative electrode plate, thereby avoiding the corrosion of the positive active material by HF gas, and further improving the high temperature storage performance of the lithium-ion battery. Furthermore, 1,3-dioxo-heterocyclic compound with the structural formula I of the present disclosure can also form a negative SEI protective film on the surface of the negative electrode plate together with fluoroethylene carbonate (FEC), and because 1,3-dioxo-heterocyclic compound with the structural formula I in the negative SEI protective film has a higher concentration of oxygen element, the transmission capability of the lithium ions on the negative SEI protective film on the surface of the negative active material is also improved, therefore the impedance of the lithium-ion battery is obviously decreased, and the low temperature discharge rate performance of the lithium-ion battery is improved.
If the weight percentage of 1,3-dioxo-heterocyclic compound with the structural formula I in the electrolyte of the lithium-ion battery is less than 0.05%, 1,3-dioxo-heterocyclic compound with the structural formula I cannot fully function; if the weight percentage of 1,3-dioxo-heterocyclic compound with the structural formula I in the electrolyte of the lithium-ion battery is more than 5%, although 1,3-dioxo-heterocyclic compound with the structural formula I may significantly inhibit the corrosion on the positive active material by HF gas, however, the positive SEI protective film is relatively thick and dense, thereby hindering the normal deintercalation-intercalation process of the lithium ions, thereby resulting in a negative effect on the capacity of the lithium-ion battery, and also seriously affecting the low temperature discharge rate performance of the lithium-ion battery. If the weight percentage of fluoroethylene carbonate (FEC) in the electrolyte of the lithium-ion battery is less than 1%, fluoroethylene carbonate (FEC) cannot form a stable negative SEI protective film; if the weight percentage of fluoroethylene carbonate (FEC) in the electrolyte of the lithium-ion battery is more than 8%, it will aggravate the gas production of the lithium-ion battery.

Finally tests and test results of examples 1-16 and comparative examples 1-6 of the lithium-ion battery and the electrolyte thereof were presented.
(1) Testing of the High Temperature Storage Performance of the Lithium-Ion Battery
At 25° C., five lithium-ion batteries of each of examples and comparative examples was charged to a voltage more than 4.35V at a constant current of 0.5 C, and then charged to a current less than 0.05 C at a constant voltage of 4.35V to make the lithium-ion battery full charged, a thickness of the full charged lithium-ion battery before storage was measured and recorded as D0, then the full charged lithium-ion battery was placed in an oven at 60° C. and taken out after 21 days, a thickness of the lithium-ion battery after storage was immediately measured and recorded as D1.
The high temperature thickness expansion rate s of the lithium-ion battery (%)=(D1−D0)/D0×100%.
An average value of the high temperature thickness expansion rates of the five lithium-ion batteries was taken as the high temperature thickness expansion rate of this lithium-ion battery.
(2) Testing of the Low Temperature Discharge Rate Performance of the Lithium-Ion Battery
At 25° C., five lithium-ion batteries of each of examples and comparative examples was charged to a voltage more than 4.35V at a constant current of 0.5 C, and then charged to a current less than 0.05 C at a constant voltage of 4.35V, then respectively placed under 25° C. and −10° C. for 60 mins, then discharged to a voltage of 3.0V at a constant current of 0.2 C. The discharge capacity of the lithium-ion battery under different temperatures D(25° C.) and D(−10° C.) were recorded.
The low temperature discharge rate of the lithium-ion battery (%)=D(−10° C.)/D(25° C.)×100%.
An average value of the low temperature discharge rates of the five lithium-ion batteries was taken as the low temperature discharge rate of this lithium-ion battery.
Table 1 illustrated related parameters and test results of examples 1-16 and comparative examples 1-6.
Next, analyses of the test results of the lithium-ion batteries were presented.
As could be seen from the comparison between examples 1-14 and comparative examples 1˜3, the lithium-ion battery of the present disclosure comprising 1,3-dioxo-heterocyclic compound with the structural formula I and fluoroethylene carbonate (FEC) had a lower high temperature thickness expansion rate and a higher low temperature discharge rate compared with the lithium-ion battery comprising no additive (comparative example 1) and the lithium-ion battery comprising only fluoroethylene carbonate (FEC) (comparative example 2) and the lithium-ion battery comprising only 1,3-dioxo-heterocyclic compound with the structural formula I (comparative example 3). This was because both the single 1,3-dioxo-heterocyclic compound with the structural formula I and the single fluoroethylene carbonate (FEC) would deteriorate the high temperature storage performance and the low temperature discharge rate performance of the lithium-ion battery. However, when fluoroethylene carbonate (FEC) and 1,3-dioxo-heterocyclic compound with the structural formula I were used together, 1,3-dioxo-heterocyclic compound with the structural formula I could form a stable positive SEI protective film on the surface of the positive electrode plate before fluoroethylene carbonate (FEC) was decomposed into HF gas on the surface of the negative electrode plate, thereby avoiding the corrosion of the positive active material by HF gas, and further improving the high temperature storage performance of the lithium-ion battery. 1,3-dioxo-heterocyclic compound with the structural formula I of the present disclosure could also form a negative SEI protective film on the surface of the negative electrode plate together with fluoroethylene carbonate (FEC), and because 1,3-dioxo-heterocyclic compound with the structural formula I in the negative SEI protective film had a higher concentration of oxygen element, the transmission capability of the lithium ions on the negative SEI protective film on the surface of the negative active material was also improved, therefore the impedance of the lithium-ion battery was obviously decreased, and the low temperature discharge rate performance of the lithium-ion battery was improved. A similar result could be seen from a comparation between example 15 and comparative example 4.
As could be seen from the comparison between examples 1-5 and comparative example 6, as the weight percentage of FEC increased, the high temperature thickness expansion rate of the lithium-ion battery firstly decreased and then increased, and the low temperature discharge rate of the lithium-ion battery firstly increased and then decreased. When the weight percentage of FEC in the electrolyte of the lithium-ion battery was more than 8% (comparative example 6), the gas production problem of the lithium-ion battery would be aggravated.
As could be seen from the comparison among example 3, examples 6-9 and comparative example 5, as the weight percentage of 1,3-dioxo-heterocyclic compound with the structural formula I increased, the high temperature thickness expansion rate of the lithium-ion battery firstly decreased and then increased, and the low temperature discharge rate of the lithium-ion battery firstly increased and then decreased. And when the weight percentage of 1,3-dioxo-heterocyclic compound with the structural formula I was relatively low (example 6), the improving effect on the lithium-ion battery was not obvious; when the weight percentage of 1,3-dioxo-heterocyclic compound with the structural formula I was relatively high (comparative example 5), although it might significantly inhibit the corrosion on the positive active material by HF gas, however, the positive SEI protective film was relatively thick and dense, thereby hindering the normal deintercalation-intercalation process of the lithium ions, thereby resulting in a negative effect on the capacity of the lithium-ion battery, and also seriously affecting the low temperature discharge rate performance of the lithium-ion battery.
As could be seen from the comparison among example 3, example 11 and example 13, as the number of the substituent group increased, both the high temperature storage performance and the low temperature discharge rate performance of the lithium-ion battery became worse, this was because the configuration of the substituent group increased the steric hindrance in the formation of the SEI protective film, and further had a negative effect on the transmission capability of the lithium ions. A similar result could be seen from the comparison among example 10, example 12 and example 14.
As could be seen from the comparison among example 3, example 15 and example 16, the lithium-ion battery using NCM333 and NCM523 as the positive active material had a better high temperature storage performance and a better low temperature discharge rate performance than the lithium-ion battery using LCO as the positive active material. This was because 1,3-dioxo-heterocyclic compound with the structural formula I and FEC were more suitable for the ternary positive active material, therefore a better SEI protective film could be formed on the surface of the positive electrode plate; moreover, a pH value of the ternary positive active material was higher, and it could better catalyze 1,3-dioxo-heterocyclic compound with the structural formula I to participate in the formation of the positive SEI protective film, therefore the concentration of the oxygen element in the positive SEI protective film was higher, and thereby further improving the transmission rate of the lithium ions, and improving the high temperature storage performance and the low temperature discharge rate performance of the lithium-ion battery.
